St. Louis
St. Louis has a vibrant Jewish community. In fact, the St. Louis Jewish community is the largest Jewish community per capita in the United States. Which means there are about 60,000 Jewish people in St. Louis with 25 different congregations, access to Kosher food, and an array of Jewish agencies and organizations. St. Louis is one of the only communities that has a Jewish campus. Millstone Campus is home to 16 agencies including the Jewish Federation of St. Louis, the Jewish Community Center(JCC), and the Central Agency for Jewish Education. The St. Louis Eruv stretches around the University City Jewish community and includes the Washington University campus allowing students to carry on Shabbat. For a full map of the Eruv, click here.
